Answer:

$x = - 3.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

-5 = 4x + 8

-5 - 8 = 4x + 8 - 8

-5 + (-8) = 4x

-13/4 = 4x/4

Therefore, x = -3.25

-5 + (-8) = 4x

Given △MON≅△PQR with MO=20 , MN=32 and PR=3x−10. Find the value of x. show your work

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

$x=14$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are congruent, then its corresponding sides and its corresponding angles are congruent

In this problem

△MON≅△PQR

corresponding sides

MO≅PQ

MN≅PR

ON≅QR

corresponding angles

∠M≅∠P

∠O≅∠Q

∠N≅∠R

therefore

MN=PR

substitute the given values

$32=3x-10$

solve for x

$3x=32+10$

$3x=42$

$x=14$

Airida [17]

Answer:

About 8595 students

Step-by-step explanation:

If approximately 9/20 of the students are male, multiplying this by the total number of students enrolled will give a good approximation of the total number of enrolled males. 9/20 * 19100=8595. Hope this helps!

$\bf -\cfrac{2}{5}+\cfrac{2}{3}p+\cfrac{1}{3}p=2p-\cfrac{16}{5}\implies \stackrel{\textit{LCD of 15}}{-\cfrac{2}{5}+\cfrac{2p}{3}+\cfrac{p}{3}}=\stackrel{\textit{LCD of 5}}{2p-\cfrac{16}{5}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{(3\cdot -2)+(5\cdot 2p)+(5\cdot p)}{15}=\cfrac{(5\cdot 2p)-16}{5}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{-6+10p+5p}{15}=\cfrac{10p-16}{5}\impliedby \textit{now we cross-multiply}
\\\\\\
-30+50p+25p=150p-240\implies -30+240=150p-75p
